BYOD
Why Does My Student Want to Take Their Device to School?
How do you use your phone or device in your life?
  • to organize (calendar)
  • to make notes/reminders/memory
  • to research or google things as needed
  • to take images
  • to take video
  • to communicate with others
How are we preparing our young people to live in a world where personal devices are everywhere? Teaching appropriate uses? When to put them away? When they can help? Students often see devices as social extensions. Teachers and adults can help make connections between learning and technology supports.
